Coloured bath resurfacing at your home in North Hylton
We resurface the bath, basin and tray in place, so there is no plumbing or tiling. Most suites take one or two days. Common call-outs are for selling or letting a home with an old suite and a suite that doesn’t match a new bathroom, across coloured basins, coloured shower trays and whole bathroom suites.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Treat it like any resurfaced bath: mild cleaners and no suction mats.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in North Hylton
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths

- Coloured shower trays

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes one to two days for a full suite, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is protected and ventilated.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- The new white, or other colour, finish is sprayed on.
- We leave everything to cure, generally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in North Hylton
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Do you need coloured bath resurfacing in North Hylton?
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. The problem is usually the colour, not the bath.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite

Questions from North Hylton
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to North Hylton. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can you do the toilet too?
Talk to us first. The inside of a bowl is always wet and scrubbed, so we’ll advise honestly before quoting.

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
